In this webinar on The ACES Trajectory – Florida and Beyond, attendees will gain important insights about advanced mobility solutions in the State of Florida. You’ll learn about ACES’ connection to Florida’s 2030 Blueprint, key technology trends both within and outside of Florida, the impact of cross-sector collaboration, future considerations to support your work, and more.

What is ACES?

  • Automated vehicles are self-driving or driverless vehicles that operate with little or no human intervention.
  • Connected vehicles are equipped with technology that allows them to communicate with other vehicles, infrastructure, other road users, and devices, enabling real-time data sharing and coordinated decision-making.
  • Electric vehicles are powered by electricity stored in batteries, rather than gasoline or diesel fuel, resulting in reduced emissions and improved environmental sustainability.
  • Shared vehicles are vehicles that are owned, maintained, and used by multiple users, rather than being owned by a single individual or organization. This can include car-sharing services, ride-sharing services, and other forms of shared mobility.
